Chelsea makes our shortest trip of the campaign tonight, crossing the district for a Premier League clash at Fulham. It will be the first SW6 derby seen by a crowd since March 2019, although the new 8650 Riverside Stand, which will eventually increase Craven Cottage’s capacity to over 29,000, is half-complete until 2023/24.
The second leg will come at the Bridge on February 3, at the end of a two-week break that will follow Liverpool on January 21.
Chelsea is unbeaten in our last seven away games against newly promoted clubs, going back to our 3-0 defeat at Sheffield United in July 2020. That was our only setback in our last 12 games against those teams (W8 D3). ).
This timing of this rescheduled ‘postcode derby’ could be considered unfortunate considering Chelsea’s disabled list arc and the fact that the Cottagers are aiming for a fourth successive top-flight win for the first time since April 1966. Local rivalries can embarrass supporters of the form. however, and the Blues have an enviable record in this West London senior derby. Fulham’s only win in 35 league games, a run that dates back to 1979 in the old Division Two, came 20 games ago on the banks of the Thames.
